    FS: Glow Marble Mini Light! - Project Parts...

    me too. My 1.5 year old nephew was AMAZED by my Lumia this halloween, so I am making him a nightlight with a few marbles and a 20mw 405... Coconuts is the good stuff too. He had my box ready to ship before I even paid and sent me a tracking # within an hour of my paypal. Now the question...

    laser show modifications

    I saw one of these last week while X-Mas shopping... The geniuses at Spencers have it mounted on the ceiling, shining down onto the floor in the main aisle of the store. If you don;t see the image on the floor, you have no idea that it's even there. Walking towards the back of the store, you...

    My son's new mission: Kids Adopt A Shelter

    Hey all, I just wanted to raise some attention for my son's new project. Some back-story: My wife's little sister works at an animal shelter. (The Little Shelter in Huntington Station, NY) My son heard all the stories and had seem facebook pics of my sis-in-law with all these different dogs...

    Laser Harp kits - Batch 2 - Finished

    Re: Laser Harp kits - Batch 2 coming soon! That's kinda funny... reminds me of a friend of mine. Aside from being a music teacher, he spent an inordinate amount of time practicing his Euphonium and Slide Trombone skills. HOURS per day, taking only Sundays off... He worked for me for a year...

    Laser Harp kits - Batch 2 - Finished

    Re: Laser Harp kits - Batch 2 coming soon! So then an Arduino Mega won't work - can't remove the (very different) ATMega chip. I am FINALLY going to have a few days off, and my Laser Harp is Job #1 for me... Q: Would be better to do the update BEFORE or AFTER building? I am using a very...

    Soldering leads to diodes

    agreed. take your time getting it all set up - then solder quick like the wind... I like to use an flat jaw alligator clip on the lead being soldered, to act as a heat sink.

    Lazy Fedex worker caught in the act.

    The guy in the video must have been trained by my FedEx driver... This moron has left $2000 amplifiers and plasma TV's out in the rain. He also left a stack of 19" LCD tv's "hidden" on the side of my house. My neighbor saw him put them there during the day, and then saw him driving the car...

    Amazon 10mW 405nm pointer burnout

    2 things wrong here. 1) 100mw is way too strong to play with a cat, unless you want to have to get the cat a seeing eye dog... Cats' eyes gather 6 times more light that ours' do. That 100mw would appear as a 500mw+ laser to a cat. You should also try to find one that is IR filtered. You...

    Making Ilda wireless

    you want to use a wifi bridge. once properly set-up it acts just like a cat-5 line... I use a Linksys E1000 wifi router with a Linksys WET-610 Bridge. I use them for non-laser purposes, but they are fast, secure and reliable nonetheless.

    Maybe there should be another thread (or continued in this one) with all of us sharing our appreciation of our gifts. I got mine a few weeks ago, and thanks to whomever was my Santa.

    Laser Tag Query

    Back in the early 90's I produced some music for PHOTON, which was one of the first laser tag "chains". They worked just like Guy said above. As for the lasers, the tech told me they got pointers, cut them in half and soldered a plug on them - and apparently the plug fell out ALOT. they do...

    21 year old arrested for hitting an aircraft with a laser

    I dunno how everyone else's best friends feel, but my dog HATES lasers. He sees any glowing little spot and POOF he's hiding under the covers with my wife. I never pointed them near him - honestly, I couldn't have, he was gone too fast - and I know my kids never get to the lasers, i don't keep...

    405 Inducing Vomitting

    The dream you had about puking, prior to puking is a common mechanism to keep us from choking on our own vomit. Good thing you're not a rockstar... apparently they don't get those puke-choking warning dreams...

    @ Anyone who sells things on LPF

    i wonder how much those who sell here donate to the cause? I sold 1 thing to an lpf member & donated $10 (was 10% of my sale). I did it more to support the great sharing of know-how everyone does here...
